Remote Instrument/Interface Search Criteria

When searching for remote interfaces, Keysight software looks for instruments having the following elements in their remote instrument name or SICL interface ID:

• GPIB instruments/interfaces: gpib0, gpib1, gpib2, gpib3, hpib, hpib7, hpib8
• Serial instruments/interfaces: COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4
• VXI instruments/interfaces: vxi0, vxi1, vxi2, vxi3, vxi
• USB instruments/interfaces: usb0, usb1, usb2, usb3

Notes:

• The default search range is limited to commonly used values for performance reasons. Additional IDs can be manually added.
• Serial and USB remote instruments are only supported with the SICL-LAN protocol.
• The hpib, hpib7, hpib8, and vxi prefixes are only supported with the SICL-LAN protocol.

Windows on ARM does not support Serial Interface, Serial Instrument, GPIB Interface, GPIB Instrument, Remote GPIB, Remote Serial, and Remote USB
